Wouldnt you love a game where your actions control the movements of your character? Well that is exactly what we have done with Spartan Athletics.

Just like our users, we wanted a sporting game that isnt just button smashing. We wanted to produce a game where the natural motion of swiping and flicking are directly related to how fast and how powerful the characters actions are. 

And that is exactly what Spartan Athletics is. The natural gestures and the amazing iPhone screen make this game a sensation. We are not the only ones who think so... Have a look at what FreshApps had to say...

"... It’s fun and refreshing to be directly physically responsible for what your avatar is performing on the screen... the game is fantastic!"

TECHNIQUE 
If you are like us the youre tired of playing games that are too easy to master. Cheap games shouldnt mean cheap gameplay. 

Swiping like a madman to make your character run faster is boring and not at all realistic! Running is as much about technique as it is about speed of movement. 

Start with slow motions and get a feel for how the characters react to your swipes. Once you get the hang of it you will be hooked and chasing those records just like a true Spartan athlete.

Throwing and jumping are all about timing. Get that right and you will improve greatly!

Take your time and get familiar with the controls and you will be swiping and flicking you way to glory!

Pros and cons of Olympic Games: Spartan Athletics app for iPhone and iPad

Olympic Games: Spartan Athletics app good for

Talk about an addictive game! I love it and my phone is dying because everyone wants to play! Lol.
I love it the graphics could be improved but that is not a big. The gameplay is great but online is even better. a must have.
This game has been pretty fun to play so far, I am enjoying it
I like this game. It has flaws, so I had to think hard before giving 5 stars because it really isnt perfect. But I had to give it 5 stars because it dared to be different. The controls took some getting used to but it was really worth it. The motions work really well when you get them right. Its just a matter of timing. The first time I got the long jump right I literally went "ahh, thats how it works" and I have loved it ever since. I, like many other im sure, am used to seeing a big button flash when its time to jump. Without that big button you really have to watch your timing, which is all part of the game. Having said all that, there are a few things that need to be fixed, but the game is already awesome fun.
This is a pretty cool game. I like the theme, I like the controls, I like the events. Would be nice to see some sharper graphics though, and the menus are a bit untidy. But its all good when you get into the events.
like omg ppl this is cool u know and like me and friend keep

Some bad moments

Thank god it was free. It is almost impossible to do anything.
Swipe your finger down and hear "yeaaah"... Boy thats fun. This is more of a 6th grade programming assignment than a game. DELETE!!!
All events require the same thing.... Over and over. No variety :(
Bad game,these projects are boring,play a long time will be bored.
Personally, didnt like this one bit. Not what I expected, sorry.
